77 Ways Your Family Can Make a Difference

(Beacon Hill Press)

Serving others - loving them the way we love ourselves - is the heartbeat of the Christian faith. As parents, we want to instill this virtue in our children, but simply telling our kids to love their neighbors isn't enough - they need to see and experience love in action.

 
Packed with 77 suggestions and activities designed to serve the different needs of people in your community, this fun and insightful book will help you cultivate love and compassion in your kids as you discover ways your family can make the world a better place by impacting the lives of others.

 
This practical and easy-to-use book includes:
Creative activities that can be adapted to fit your unique family

Service ideas for a variety of budgets

Bible verses to help children connect God's truth to their lives

Interactive discussion questions to help your family understand the importance of each activity and correlate it to God's Word.

Great idea for a book! I've long pondered this very issue for my own family. The closest we got (as a family doing something together) was when, on Christmas Eve one year, we went to a local hospital and I gave all the women who would be there on Christmas a copy of one of my books. We walked out feeling a head taller. : )

What a wonderful subject for a book. I think it would be useful not only for families but also for Sunday School groups, Scout groups and others to glean ideas from. Thanks for making me aware of it!

Blessings,
Janice

That's a great idea, Janice. We did American Heritage girls for a couple years and they were always looking for more opportunities to reach out and serve others. Thanks for entering:) God bless!
